Jace left the Japanese restaurant and headed straight back to Skye Hotel.
Zayne, looking at Sage’s car disappear into the distance, asked Jace, “Boss, do we follow her?”
“There’s no need.” Jace felt that if he were to continue with his actions, he would truly become a
stalker. “Just ask your men to keep a close distance.”
Jace felt somewhat frustrated. He rolled down his window and lit a cigarette. The flame burned dimly in
the night. Jace allowed his thoughts to carry him away. He could not stop thinking of the photo of Sage
and Luther, their faces so close together.
Sage had never liked her photo taken. He did not even have a personal photo of her. The only photo
that they had taken together was their wedding photo.
However, it appeared that whenever Luther was around, Sage was always close by. Even if they had
grown up together, they were too close.
Jace’s heart turned sour and jealous, almost as if he had planted a lemon tree there.
His phone rang loudly. It was a foreign number, and it came from Nadeem. He took it, and his voice
was low, “Hello, who is this?”
Sienna was on the other end of the line. “Jacey!” She sounded close to tears. She had finally got Jace
to take her call.
He had been refusing her calls for days, and he had finally even blocked her number. She had to use a
new number in order to reach him.
Despite hearing her voice, Jace remained unfazed. “Oh, it’s you. What do you want?” Sienna’s heart
tightened when she heard Jace’s cold answer. It was as if she were no more than a stranger to him.
“Jacey, are you still mad at me?” Sienna phrased her question carefully, but before he could answer,
she quickly sped on, “I’m really, really sorry! It’s all my fault! I was dumb and naive, and that’s how I got
conned by men. I’ve changed, really. All I want is to b e together with you forever!”
“I’ve said all I wanted to say to you. Please, don’t call me again,” said Jace. He was unmoved by her
speech. He did not care if she was really naive or if it was all a pretense. He wanted nothing more to do
with her.
She had had her fun, and now she wanted to settle down with an honest man, except, Jace was
everything but an honest man.
Once Jace had found out how Sienna had manipulated him with her fake terminal illness, all his
feelings for her had evaporated. H e had always been a heartless man.
Seeing that Jace was about to hang up, Sienna quickly added, “Jace, Jace, I know I’ve wronged you.
But what about Sage? She liedt o you too! She wasn’t some country girl; she is an heiress to Norah
Group!”
Sienna had just discovered Sage’s identity not too long ago. Initially, when Jace had first cut all ties
with her, she had thought that he would cool down after a few days and come back to her. He had been
in love with her for many days, how could he just leave her?
She had tried calling him many times, but when she failed each time, she had set out looking for him at
Yuriel Group. Jace’s assistants kept their mouths shut as to his whereabouts the whole time. Out of
luck, she went to Yuriel Mansion, and finally, the butler told her that Jace was in Salem City.
“Master Yuriel took the stamp given by the ex-Missus with him before he left. I guess he’s there for her.”
The butler had tipped Sienna off.
